I doubt Keith could commit to doing a full show every day, not with his current work load. A once-weekly television thing might be a possibility (with Dan coming down to the city for it), but again Keith’s current full schedule might make that a long shot.

I’m inclined to believe, however pessimistic it might be, that Dan’s radio show is coming to an end - or at least Keith’s participation in it.

KO said he reads Deadspin too in an interview he did a while ago.

I think it’s one of two possibilities: Keith comes on to the DP show full time, or Dan and Keith are going to start filming a show together for ESPN TV.

I don’t think that Dan will be doing a spot on Keith’s show because of the content of the show. Keith’s show is political commentary, and not a standard news show where people can tune in for a sports segmen - I don’t think it would fit. I don’t think that Dan would take the Price Is Right job either simply because it’s not sports, it’s the Florida of broadcasting where someone is going to go to die on television like Bob.

My guess is a new sports talk show on television with both Dan and Keith. I’m thinking something like PTI with both of them, maybe in a more conversational format, but definitely some type of commentary on topics. Both are also great interviewers, so a hybrid type show like Jim Rome’s wouldn’t be a bad guess either.

I’m still so dead-amused over Keith and Dan’s Letterman appearance. I was wee when they were both still on television together, so my memories of The (Real) Big Show mostly involve footie pajamas and staying up too late to watch the show whenever Syracuse University made the highlights. It was a real delight to see them reunited on television, however briefly, and it’d be wonderful if they could somehow swing joint TV appearances as a regular gig.

…any way for Countdown to start including a sports news segment? Athletes are kind of like celebrities, and hey, if we have to sit through eight minutes of freakin’ Michael Musto rambling on about Paris Hilton because someone thinks that’s news, I think that entitles us to a solid six minutes of commentary on The Yankees. That’s news.

Dan Patrick on The Price Is Right? That would be weird indeed.

As for the big “life-changing news”: Well, I too assume it involves Keith, as those are the exact words Dan used when announcing Keith would be on his show every day. I can’t picture him doing two or three hours of The Big Show instead of just one, though. Then again, with the way he loads up his schedule, who knows?

I can picture Dan and Keith being put on TV at The Mothership again, but then again, Keith implied on Letterman that his complete and total ban from the campus of The Worldwide Leader (the Olbermann Fatwa?) is still in place. Thus it does seem most likely that if Dan ‘n’ Keith are making a return to TV, it’s from New York. Given the amount of time they’ve spent lately discussing the anniversary of their last show together, that would make sense.

But then you have to question the timing of their Letterman gig. If they had a new show to flog together, why wouldn’t they want to go on AFTER the formal announcement, so they could flog it?

Is a puzzlement. I guess we have no choice but to wait and see.
